Opened in 1990, the Icon Museum in Frankfurt am Main is in the former refectory of the House of the Teutonic Order at the eastern end of the Museum Embankment. It covers the entire range of Christian-Orthodox imagery and presents icon art and worship from the 15th to the 20th century. In an interesting juxtaposition, the sleek contoured rooms create a dynamic contrast to the building and the icons painted on wood. Among the museum's most valuable exhibits are a Coptic paper icon of the 12th/13th century and a series of signed and dated icons. The collection also includes hand-crafted sacred items such as crucifixes, liturgical objects and textiles. Closed on Mondays. Guided tours on request.
